*******Official Armed Assault 2 thread of official officialness*******

Is it bad that I still havnt touched any SP aspect of this game?

Oh no wait, I've played two armoury challenges.. before I closed that down and booted up the OcUK server again.

those of you struggling to get into multiplayer I highly suggest you setup your own game - and get friends or others to join

I find the massive domination - waiting for helicopters etc - maps frustrating and un-rewarding

yet a 4 player co-op attack on a computer generated village FAR more fun - had a blast the other week with this and a few other players

AI was really good ... whats good is that they show no fear !

you genuinely can get totally pinned down (like real-life I suppose) without being able to even go to crouch - all you can hear are the richochets, and with the really near ones a phweet.

got a 4890 (Asus) arriving next week - but also tempted to change my Q6600 - to a Q9550 - not sure if it is worth it but sure would like lower temps and vcores !! (1.50V at the moment .. .on air ...)

This is the bottom line with arma2! ;)

For those who haven't tried it yet, get hosting your own private servers and invite mates into them (no more than 3 I'd suggest). I've never experienced better co-op than this and last night hosted a mission I've been working on for a few days now. It is a large scale invasion scenario where we paradrop onto the coastline and basically chose what target/town to have a shot at. I've enabled respawns and have a bunch of empty vehicles and ammo/weapon crates right where we spawn. Absolutely the best online co-op I've ever had!

Although I made the mission I added a couple of ACMs and created very large radius' for the ai waypoints so didn't really know what we'd run into. At every turn the ai surprissed us. We actually got properly ambushed at one point in a dense pine forest and were pinned down for about 5 mins until we battled out and ran off.

I'm going to work on a defence scenario next where the ai are all incoming with the waypoint to secure a spawn point the players have to hold!
 
I disgaree on the above,

When you ahve 30 OCUK players all on TS domination is just ace, dedicated Heli pilots, fixed wing and such its a joy.
plus there should never be a reason to wait for helis unless its a extract. most of us lift the MHQ to target zones with troops that way you can spawn and carry on the fight:)

I really enjoy DOM plus teh map can be edited to start with more stuff too but ist betetr as it is, think we have the settings set to vet mode no 3rd person and AI set to ultra
 
Im havin a blast wi the rest of the OcUk guys, theyre all pretty team minded and good to get on with.

We still get some nubcakes tho :)

I wrestled a Blackhawk with busted tail rotor back to base, this thing would not go straight, in autohover it span round n round..

Got it down, got out to get a fuel truck, ammo truck and repair truck only to find some other sod get in it and naff off with it.. grrr didnt even stop to pick folk up.

The pvp missions the other night were fun too. Roll on tonight :D
 
I'm getting a bit better at game, had my first 30 kills last night but still consider myself pretty **** at the game. I normally play CoD 4, It does take a lot of patient to play Arma 2.

Hi Ewan, is me s9yke from the server.
 
Just to let you guys know that play on the OCUK server, we're looking at having a weekly regulars-only night: a locked server night with proper team-play and comms without the interference of random people joining and teamkilling/stealing vehicles etc.
Once a day has been chosen etc, the weekly password will appear in the member-only section of the ocuk-arma2.co.uk forums, so if you're interested get registered on the site and join the 'OCUK server regulars' usergroup :)
 
Good idea Lee

I suggest all day sunday for this

Maybe start 1 mission at 15:00 and then play thu
Diner break then
Another to start at 19:000 hours and play thru

New version of we were soldiers with the HALO radio menu has been uploaded
to server this morning
